Just like the inscription

Peter asked you to produce an example other than, of course, an inscription, and you respond with an inscription. Bravo.

in the Brunel chamber of the Chauvet
cave, some 32,000 years old, a domino five with an additional
dot next to the upper right dot of the five-dot-sign, something
like this, all dots red:

O O O CA
O
O O PAS

The domino five means PAS for everywhere in a plain,
here, south and east of me, east and west of me, all in all
five places, preserved in Greek pas pan for all, every,
and in pente penta- for five; the CA means sky; together
we obtain PAS CA with about this meaning: may the
supreme leader of the lower Rhone valley roam the sky
in his next life as he roams the land in this life ...

And you make all of that up, and, presto, it magically becomes true?
